you could ph to 6.5 to increase mineral intake

Well when I say 6, I mean in the range of 6 to 6.5. My last watering yesterday was actually 6.31 to be exact. Any thoughts on the leaf spots?

The strain in question is Blueberry muffin and I will note that it's genetics seem poor compared to the gorilla glue and royal kush growing in the same closet.

nothing rumbles, but it could as well be just a temporal nuissance... Id just have an eye at the plant if it doesnt spread...

some of the tops of the backplants have wrinkled new growth with bright tips. this could indicate the start of a problem which may be pH related...

Notes taken, thank you. I'll keep an eye on it and double check the PH

Do you adjust the pH of your own distilled water or are you using tap water? Also when are you checking pH with respect to pH adjustment as well as with respect to addition?

My tap water comes out close to 8. I add my liquid seaweed, then my pH down until I'm in the range of about 5.8ish to 6.4ish

Blueberry is notoriously finicky when it comes to nutrients. And a hybrid with in its genes could also be finicky as well.
The pics look like nutrient solution has been splash on it. Is it just those couple of leaves, or is it widespread?

Man it does appear that way I agree, but Im certain it's not. It's only those lower leaves, but overall the plants leaf health all around is definitely poor compared to everything growing around it. I haven't fed any nutrients besides what's in the foxfarm soil and like I said the liquid seaweed. Could be just finicky like you said

Looks like the beginning of mg deficiency. Try some Cal Mag, won't hurt the plant.

I was leaning that way, but wanted pro opinions. I'll do that for sure.
